BLURB:

Warrior Mine - Base Branch Novel 4

A silver fox learns new tricks.

The Base Branch office in Washington D.C. is so heavily
fortified it makes Fort Knox look like a 7-Eleven. After twenty years in covert
ops, nothing fazes Commander Vail Tucker. When a lightning bolt of feminine
fury crashes into the interrogation room, holds him at gunpoint, and takes over
the task with his prisoner, he’s more than surprised. She escapes without a
trace, but Vail is unable to remain dispassionate. He must know what is so
important the beguiling woman would risk her life to find it.

Carmen Ruez is deadly and desperate—a combustible
combination. Born into the remnants of the Arellano Felix Organization, drugs
and violence kept her in a gilded cage—until a twist of fate showed her the
roots of their riches, making her yearn for freedom. She works for it. Fights
for it. But her brother crosses the line to keep her loyal to the treacherous
family she is determined to leave behind.

Following instinct, Vail uncovers Carmen's motives and is
galvanized by a protective instinct he hadn't known he possessed. Determination
and desire force them to work together to defeat those loyal to Carlos Ruez and
the AFO. But are those traits enough to make them fight for a future together?

EXCERPT

Khani sat on the edge of the
chair and folded her legs toward him. Her pant leg stuck on the back of her
Tamara Mellon spiked heel. With a wiggle of her foot the suit’s material
smoothed. “Are you scared of death?” She didn’t know where the question had
come from. It was just there and out before she could think it through.

“No.”

“What are you scared of?”

He sat quietly for a long time.
The minutes ticked by on the large digital clock across the room. Intent wedged
the center of his brow. “Life.”

She gave a pitiful attempt at a
smile. “Me too. It seems a common theme among us covert types.” Her crooked
lips fell into a flat line and his followed suit. “Why do you think that is,
Commander?”

His wide shoulders shrugged and a
gritted groan slipped through his teeth. His breathing came harshly for a four
count. “Why so many questions?”

“Figured you might know the
answers.”

“Older and wiser, huh?”

“Something like that.”

****

“It’s because we can’t unsee the
things we’ve seen, unknow the things we know. We’re scared of what life could
give us to lose.”
